je cherche des infos pour une ballade sur les khlongs de bangkok ;;;en particulier Noi, Yai etc....
comment s'y rendre et quel embarcadère, prix moyen de la balade
merci d'avance ...je serais logé à Navalai River Resort
45/1 Phra Athit Road,
Phra Nakorn,10200 Bangkok
quel est le plus facile depuis cet hôtel,
merci à tous;😏
Salut, je ne me souviens plus de l'embarcadere mais tu le trouveras sur le routard il y est mentionné, l'important n'est pas là, seuls circulent sur les klongs les long trails, grande pirogue avec des moteurs arbres longs, le truc est de te mettre d'accord avec d'autres gens pour le meme trajet et y aller ensemble, tu dois pouvoir monter à 10, le prix de la pirogue est d'environ 800 bts pour 1 heure. à toi de faire ton trajet mais en 1 heure c'est un peu juste je dirai 2 heures pour pouvoir s'enfoncer dans le vieux Bangkok.
bonjour
demande au patron du bar au pied de ton hotel , il te reserve le jour et l'heure que tu veux (pour 800 baths de l'heure , c'est ça) un long tail qui te prends a quelques metres du bar pour aller ou tu veux
cordialement
tu dois pouvoir monter à 10,
salut c'est 15 farangs .🤪 ou 20 thaïe 😉.. le prix actuellement est plus 1,000 bt que 800 de l'heure ..
exact la balade de 1 h est vraiment pas terrible . elle fait le circuit les grands kongs ..
- mais celle de 2 h . est légèrement mieux .. . il s'enfonce légèrement dans les klongs .. pour cela juste lui demander de voir la ferme a orchidée .. ( payante 20 bt l'entrée par personne .. )
(pour 800 baths de l'heure , c'est ça) un long tail qui te prends a quelques mètres du bar pour aller ou tu veux
exact sauf que es que on sait ou on veut aller?
pour l'information .. il y a encore 3000 klm de klongs 🤪.. m'a dit le service des klongs .. sa en fait des balades fluviales en perspective .. 😉
petit plan sympathique .. monter en bateau bus jusqu'à ko kert .. la cherche un peut un bateau ( petit ) qui vous fait découvrir son environnement .. je ne peut pas donner un prix car c'est au pif au mètre .. mais on découvre un autre visage de la banlieue de bkk ..
bonne navigation ..

bonjour thuan.... et tikka
tout augmente, mais ça reste raisonnable même en louant le long tail a 2 ou a 4
+ 1 pour la ballade a KO KRET qui est tres sympha aussi a pied (un peu long pour faire tout le tour)
et thuan est le specialiste des klongs de bankok etc...
il va falloir que j ' y retourne encore 1 fois en thailande
cordialement
je viens de rentrer de Bangkok et ai fait deux superbes balades sur les Khlongs .
L'une , formidable , avec Thuan .On ne se lasse pas d'ecouter ses anecdotes et en prendre plein les mirettes.
A la fin du circuit , qu'une seule envie le refaire une prochaine fois et en sa compagnie .
Quelques jours auparavant , j'en ai fait une autre en individuel :
j ai gagné le terminus de la navette fluviale à Nonthaburi ( pier/ponton numero 30 )
et là un batelier jovial , un peu enrobé , dénommé Lek, 46 ans m a proposé sans harcelement de m' emmener faire une boucle sur le khlong Om sur son petit bateau . Cout 800 baths.
Belle balade egalement mais celle de Thuan reste de loin le must .
J avais dit à Lek que je refairais une balade avec lui avant mon depart , malheureusement
le jour ou je suis retourné ses collegues m'ont dit qu'il etait parti avec son bateau vers l'ile fluviale de Ko Kret .
J ai eu le tort de ne pas l'appeler sur son portable la veille , mais je craignais des pluies eventuelles pour le lendemain. j ai noté son numéro mais ne l ai pas avec moi actuellement.
Mr Lek est connu , demandez aux employées qui delivrent les billets de la navette fluviale , elles le connaissent et vous renseigneront .
De Nonthaburi vous pouvez revenir par la navette , drapeau orange , exemple jusqu'au ponton /pier N1
de l hotel Oriental , passé l ambassade de France et tout pres du metro aerien Saphan Taksin
Cout = 16 baths.
salut petit plan pour éviter les coins a touristes .. prendre un taxi un samedi ou dimanche .. dire talat nam >lam ma yong > la près du pont demander sing ou un autre .. il ya des bateau collectifs .. qui font les 9 temples du coin .. a 99% vous serez les seuls abord .. si c'est le batelier sing . il sera très sympa avec vous .. le prix je ne le connais pas mais c'est prix thai .. ambiance thai ..

Ile de Ko Kret : banlieue de Bangkok :
Bonjour a tous ,
Ko Kret est une ile dans une boucle de la Chao Praya , au nord de Nonthaburi et située à l' ouest de l 'ancien aeroport de Dong Muang.
En fait un canal a ete creuse la transformant en ile
Aujourd hui je suis parti tot avant que la temperature ne grimpe et y ai passe 6 heures de bonheur .
Parti de Sukhumvit a 6h15 , j y etais a 7h45 apres etre alle au metro Victory monument pour prendre le bus AC 166 qui vous depose/reprend a 500m de l embarcadere .
10 baths pour un moto taxi , l embarcadere est un peu caché .
Traversée = 2 modestes baths avec un tout petit ferry navette .
Pas de voitures en vue que des motocyclettes dont des moto taxis ou velos à louer pour 40 baths de l' heure .
Une piste betonnee decrit une boucle et regulierement des embranchements partent vers des pontons au bord du fleuve ou alors des chemins partent coté coeur de l ile .
Sur la rive opposée maisons a pilotis et embarcaderes bordent le fleuve .
Aucun batiment eleve en vue ne gache le paysage.
La petite route passe au milieu d une vegetation luxuriante de cocotiers, bananiers, papayers, vergers . Ici et là quelques maisons bordent la piste .
On se croirait en pleine campagne et je dirais meme que celà m a rappelé un peu le delta du Mekong au Vietnam .
Certaines pistes amenant aux embarcaderes sont surelevées .
Vraiment cela vaut le coup de vous y rendre pour quelques heures , vous vous croirez a la campagne.
Quelques avions decollant de Dong Muang rappellent que la capitale est toute proche .
Voici le numero de portable de LeK si vous voulez tenter l'experience .
080 90 550 22 , il se debrouille en anglais sommaire.
J aurais pu retourner au meme endroit avec un de ses collégues .
Le gars , un thai chevelu grisonnant et barbu , n etait pas vraiment insistant mais employait un ton assez sec .
Je n ai pas eu le meme feeling qu' avec Lek et ai préféré de ne pas donner suite .
Parti de Sukhumvit a 6h15 , j y etais a 7h45 apres etre alle au metro Victory monument pour prendre le bus AC 166 qui vous dépose/reprend a 500m de l; embarcadere .
salut dommage 😉il ya un moyen bien plus charming .. bts arrêt taxin le prendre le bateau bus pour kho kret .. 😉😉
continue a donner des plans hors circuits touristiques merci .. 🙂

je reprend cette discussion que je n'avais pas vu ... Pour aller à ko kret, ne faut t'il pas prendre un bateau à drapeau vert jusqu'à pak kred ? C'est intéressant car les vert il semble ne pas y en avoir beaucoup. Les orange s’arrête à Nonthaburi et ça a l'air un peu loin sur le plan.
bonjour à tous;;;
voilà déja rentré de thailande ...et pour notre premier voyage je reviens avec pleins de souvenirs ! et bien sur la balade sur les klongs avec Thuan; quelle merveilleuse matinée : 3 heures de balade on en a pleins les yeux ; les habitants, les temples, les marchands sur leur bateau...et puis Thuan qui nous raconte et qui nous fait rêver;
merci pour tout Thuan. Et bonjour aux chtits(Quentin et Delphine) qui étaient avec nous ce jour là !! 😏
Bonjour, pourrais-je avoir les coordonnées (ou un endroit ou je pourrais le trouver) de ce certain Thuan qui a tant de succes s'il vous plait !
Merci d'avance ! 😉
attention thuan n est pas un guide !!! il le dis bien ...mais plutot il aime faire partager sa vie des klongs!! je ne me trompe pas n est ce pas thuan ! un petit bonjour de france (olivier et sandrine)
C'est pourtant pas compliqué.
Vous cliquez sur son pseudo puis vous cherchez la ligne "Envoyer un message privé à..."
(Et au-dessus, on vous dit qu'il n'est pas guide !...)
J ai besoin de Vous!!! Je cherche à faire une petite ballade sur les Khlongs de BKK et j avoue être un peu perdu! J ai lu pas mal de posts où les gens parlent…
Nous partons en février pour la 5éme fois en Thaïlande mais pour la première fois, nous allons passer et nous arrêter à Bangkok pour 2 jours 1/2. Nous avons…
Attention j ose quand même ouvrir une discussion!!! En plus sur un sujet rabâche depuis des années... Je viens de tout lire, mais concrètement, quand on est…
Tous Je voudrais un plan pour faire une chouette ballade sur les Klongs et comme j'ai épluché les discussion sur le site j'en ai conclut que ni Julien, ni…
Nous envisageons une ballade sur les klongs de Bangkok. A quel endroit est-ce le mieux pour embarquer? quels klongs ne pas rater? Quel est le prix moyen? MERCI
Hi everyone,
I’m looking for addresses for guesthouses or, even better, houseboats or rafting houses on the River Kwai, between Kanchanaburi and Sangkhlaburi, to spend a few weeks contemplating this beautiful river.
Thanks for your suggestions!

Hi there,
we’re currently in Mai Chau and tomorrow we’re hitting the road back to Hanoi to head up toward Bac Ha and Sapa.
We haven’t really had a set plan since we arrived—we’ve already done the Halong Bay on land and by sea.
I’ve got 2 free days before heading to Bac Ha and Sapa.
Any tips?
Thanks, and looking forward to hearing from you.
Hi fellow travelers,
First trip to Vietnam.
We’ll be arriving in Ho Chi Minh City during Tet.
Is it complicated to find accommodation and get around during this period?
Any tips would be welcome.
Thanks for your replies.
Silly question—backpack or hard-shell suitcase for the Sepilok, Kinabatangan, Tioman, KL trip?
I’m struggling to fit all my son’s and my stuff into the 70L backpack... and I’m thinking a suitcase would be easier, but I’m not sure if it’ll work for getting around.
Hi there,
I didn’t plan to return to Thailand this year, but my health conditions mean it’ll be the best place for me to stay between two trips to India. The tourism setup there is so well-organized that it’s the most "comfortable" country for a short visit. Thailand feels too sanitized for my taste, and there’s too much religion, Buddha, and the King, but it’s still the best option given how my health has been evolving. I’d considered two weeks in ThaTon for hiking, but I got too sick from the burn-offs during my trips to the mountains around Chiang Rai. So I’m not sure where to go this year. Definitely not the sea, touristy spots, or the mountains with burn-offs...
Hello.
In 1996, we crossed Vietnam from Saigon to Hanoi by motorbike—Minsk bikes we bought in Saigon. I haven’t been back since, and it seems like a lot has changed.
- We’re heading to the south (well, the north and center) with the family in July-August (3 people).
- Is the road network more developed now? Back then, there was only National Route 1 from south to north. I’m thinking of renting a car this time (no motorbike with the family—though in ’96, they had a Jawa sidecar for sale, and we hesitated… maybe it’s for the best).
- Is Halong Bay really something to avoid because of overtourism? Even back then, it was pretty crowded. Is there a less touristy alternative?
- We’ll be traveling from Hanoi down to Danang (the only city we didn’t stop in back in ’96). Even though it’s a bit overhyped in a Chinese-tourist kind of way (from what I’ve read), we’re only going for the beach—pure relaxation for 7 days. The beaches are stunning, and I know the South China Sea is warm like coffee.
- Then, we’ll visit Hoi An, where I stopped in ’96. It was already popular with backpackers back then, but no glowing boats or all the touristy fuss!
- After that, Hue, where I have great memories—it’s a beautiful city.
- And also the nature around Ninh Binh, followed by 2-3 days in Hanoi.
That’s the plan. I’d love to hear any tips to avoid mass tourism, and if anyone’s done this before:
- Is it possible to rent a car in Danang and drop it off in Hanoi?
Hey everyone,
I’m over in East Borneo in mid-July.
I’m struggling to wrap up the end of my itinerary, even though it’s pretty straightforward (long but simple).
Last year, we did Malaysia (KL and the mainland + around Kuching).
Day 1 – Arrive in Kota Kinabalu early, stroll around town and hit the must-sees.
Day 2 – Excursion to Tunku Abdul Rahman Park, snorkeling at 3 islands.
Day 3 – Hike around Mount Kinabalu without summiting (450 per person, no way).
Day 4 – Poring Hot Springs + evening flight to Sandakan.
Day 5-6-7 – Kinabatangan River (still looking for the right guide).
Day 8 – Sepilok for the orangutans, the Sun Bear Centre, and Rainforest Discovery Centre.
Day 9 – Selingan, turtle island.
Day 10 – Head to Semporna.
Day 11-12-13-14 – Sipadan, Mabul, Kapalai.
Day 15 – Bohey Dulang.
Day 16 to Day 25: I’M STUCK.
I looked into Danum Valley, but for 3 days/2 nights, they’re quoting 650 € per person—come on, that’s ridiculous.
I checked out a detour into Indonesia (still East Borneo), but I’m having trouble deciding what would be amazing.
I read about Sangalaki + Kakaban (2 islands, 1 base) / Mahakam Delta - Kutai (orangutans and river) / Sungai Boh (Dayak Kayan) – jungle & culture.
But honestly, I’m struggling to finalize this itinerary.
If we venture that way, we’d head back to KK from Balikpapan.
For a 4-month stay in Egypt, I had ENORMOUS problems. The regulations are very bureaucratic and extremely nitpicky there. For a 4-month stay in the Philippines, I was wondering if the procedures are just as complicated? I’m bringing my cell phone with an eSIM. Should I choose a plan from Canada for use in the Philippines, or should I get a plan only once I arrive? After 30 days, do I renew with the Canadian provider I chose before leaving, or do I switch to a local company? Do I need to register my phone with the authorities in the Philippines? (That was the case in Egypt.) For the 3rd and 4th months, will it be just as simple—renewing with a Canadian or local provider—or should I expect problems?
Hello,
I’ll be in Malaysia with my wife, mainly in Langkawi and Penang for Christmas and New Year’s at the end of 2026.
If you’ve had the experience—and since I’ve read (though it’s not very clear) that these two islands get quite crowded during this period—would you recommend booking accommodation well in advance, or is it easy to find something on the spot?
Hotels or Airbnb?
Do you have any great tips for accommodation or any practical info to share?
We’ll be staying 5 to 7 days on each island.
Thanks in advance for your replies
Hi there. To make the most of Lake Toba, is it better to find accommodation on the lake’s shores (which one?) or on Samosir Island? Thanks for your tips!
Hi there,
We’re heading to Vietnam as a family on July 8th for a little over 3 weeks (north and center). We’ve only booked the first 3 nights in Hanoi, and nothing else after that. We like to decide things on the spot and go with the flow, without rushing everywhere. But I’m still a bit unsure: when heading down to the center (Hue), is it better to book the overnight trains in advance? We don’t want to take any flights while we’re there—just use the overnight train for the long trips. But I’m worried we won’t get seats if we buy the tickets on the spot, say, 2 days before. What do the experts here think? And which website can we use to book the tickets? Thanks in advance for your tips!
Hi everyone!
I’m heading back to Thailand in July 2026 with a stopover in Cambodia to visit the Angkor site.
After Angkor, I’ve booked a stay on Ko Chang island. Does anyone know if there are direct transport options from Cambodia to Ko Chang without having to go back through Bangkok? That would be amazing!!
I think there are, but I’d need more details!!
I went to Thailand in February 2025 and don’t remember having to apply for a visa—is that still the case now? And for Cambodia too?
Thanks so much!!!

I’d love to get some feedback on our itinerary—it’s probably pretty basic! This is our second trip to Asia and our first to Indonesia. We have three kids aged 20, 18, and 12. We land in Jakarta at 4 PM, spend 3 nights/2 days there, then take the train to Yogyakarta for 3 nights/2 days, followed by the train to Surabaya for 2 nights/1 day, then the train to Bromo for 1 day/1 night, a private driver to Ijen for 2 nights/2 days, then on to Bali (Ubud) for 4 nights/3 days, followed by Gili Air for 3 nights/2 days, Senggigi (Lombok) for 2 nights, and finally 5 nights in Kuta. I’m considering cutting the 2 nights in Senggigi to just keep Kuta and extend it to 7 nights. In Lombok, I’m not sure how to get around since I’m not comfortable with scooters... Your thoughts on all of this, and any advice, are more than welcome—don’t hesitate!
For those wondering why cities like Jakarta and Surabaya: we don’t often get the chance to visit big Asian cities, so we wanted to include that discovery in our trip. The trains between Jakarta and Yogyakarta, Surabaya and Probolinggo are booked. The return flight from Lombok to Jakarta is also set. Accommodations are booked but flexible (same for the trains).
Hi,
After our trip to China, we want to spend a week in the Philippines for some beach time and snorkeling.
We're looking for the best spot to settle in—nice beaches, great marine life, and short transfer times.
Thanks for your suggestions!
Does anyone know of a private transfer or taxi company that organizes transfers from the Sukhothai area to Chiang Mai?
Our routes are Sukhothai-Lampang, Lampang-Chom Thong, and Chom Thong-Chiang Mai.
My searches on Google Maps, 12Go, and others haven’t turned up much...
For our Bangkok-Sukhothai trips, I use a company I’ve already tried, but they don’t have a fleet available from Sukhothai and have to go through third-party companies—which, understandably, take their commission. This nearly doubles the prices...
There are four of us, and we’re not traveling light, so a minibus isn’t an option. ;-)
Hello,
While traveling in Thailand, I’m looking for a Buddhist kumlai reed bracelet.
Does anyone know where I can find one?
In Bangkok, I visited a few temples but didn’t see any in the nearby shops.
If you have any ideas, I’d love to hear them! Have a great day! :-)
My trip’s coming up, and I’m having a bit of trouble with three bus/minivan routes. Usually, I find everything at this time of year, but this time—yikes!
Sandakan → Sepilok:
No app for this one—you just hop on bus #14 at the local terminal (pay cash on board). But where do I catch it, and where’s the stop??
Sandakan → Semporna:
From what I’ve heard, it’s the Sida Express company (great name, right? 😄).
Can’t book online, but apparently, you *have* to because there’s only one bus at 8 AM.
Where do I board, and where does it drop me off?
Semporna → Tawau:
Found this via AI—is it legit?
No online booking, as far as I can tell.
Minivans leave from a stop in the Jalan Hospital area, near the Milimewa supermarket, supposedly????
And when you arrive, does it drop you at **Sabindo Square** in Tawau?????
Hi there,
we’ll be in Mai Chau in June and we’re thinking of heading to Sapa, but first spending a few days in Bac Ha to do some hiking and explore the area.
Is this a good idea for those who’ve been there?
How do you get there?
Thanks for your feedback.
Looking forward to hearing from you.
Cédric.
Hi everyone. As I’m planning my trip for next winter, I’m looking for hotel suggestions in Camotes, Bantayan, Malapascua, Bohol, and Siquijor. The ones I had in mind seem to be fully booked (unless it’s too early?). For those familiar with the area, is it easy to find accommodations on the spot in January/February? I’m specifically looking for hotels with a pool, beachfront, air conditioning, and easy scooter rental nearby. Thanks for your tips!
Hi there,
I’m planning an itinerary and would love some feedback on whether it’s doable and if the number of days per destination is enough—or too much. I was also debating whether to add an extra night on an island or spend an extra night in Kampot to visit Kep or Battambang.
March 23: Arrival in Phnom Penh in the morning
March 24: Phnom Penh
March 25: Phnom Penh
March 26: Depart for Kampot
March 27: Kampot
March 28: Depart for Battambang
March 29: Battambang
March 30: Tonlé SAP to Siem Reap
March 31: Siem Reap
April 1: Siem Reap
April 2: Siem Reap
April 3: Siem Reap
April 4: Siem Reap
April 5: Departure
Hi there,
Yesterday in the Thailand section, 100% of the new threads were just about beach destinations 😕...
So here’s the counterattack in the form of this photo thread, dedicated solely to the countryside: the locals, their livestock, fields, farms, rice paddies, small rivers, and agricultural machinery. If you’ve got any pictures that fit these categories, feel free to add them!
Comments welcome.
For each photo, I’ll (or you can) indicate the area where it was taken.
Hope you're all doing well! It's been a while since I last traveled, but I'm finally heading out again soon!
For those familiar with SOUTHEAST ASIA, I'm planning to leave in mid-June (with the trip ending at the latest in November), and I don’t have a precise idea of exact places or itineraries yet. The thing is, this period is usually the rainy season...
Any advice? I was thinking of Malaysia or Indonesia, like Sulawesi, for example (all countries and islands in Southeast Asia interest me except Bali).
Any recommendations? I’m doing my research online, but if anyone here has the time and knowledge, I’d love to hear from you.
My partner and I are planning a trip to Indonesia in September-October 2026. It’ll be our first time in Asia, and we’re thinking of hitting the classic spots in East Java and Bali, then wrapping up with a cruise around Komodo for some snorkeling/diving. Here’s a rough draft of our itinerary—I’m wondering if it’s doable.
20/09: Flight from Jakarta to Yogyakarta, arrive around noon, afternoon/evening and overnight in Yogyakarta.
21/09: Borobudur
22/09: Prambanan
23/09: Travel to Bromo (Cemoro Lawang)
24/09: Bromo
25/09: Kawa Ijen
26/09: Travel to Bali, overnight in Pemuteran
27/09: Excursion to Pulau Melujan, overnight in Pemuteran
28/09: Travel to Munduk, overnight in Munduk
29/09: Explore Munduk and surroundings, overnight in Munduk
30/09: Explore Munduk and surroundings, overnight in Munduk

02/10: Explore Ubud and surroundings, overnight in Ubud
03/10: Explore Ubud and surroundings, overnight in Ubud
04/10: Travel to Denpasar, flight to Labuan Bajo, overnight in Labuan Bajo
05/10: Komodo cruise
06/10: Komodo cruise
07/10: Komodo cruise, flight to Denpasar in the late afternoon/evening or overnight in Labuan Bajo.
08/10: Flight to Denpasar (if not taken the day before), afternoon in Jimbaran, overnight near Denpasar
09/10: 10:00 AM flight Denpasar - SIN, overnight in Singapore
10/10: Flight SIN-YQB
Hi everyone,
My girlfriend and I booked our tickets with Saudia Airlines for a trip to Thailand this summer, from July 5th to August 3rd. Given the geopolitical situation in the Middle East, we’re keeping a close eye on the news.
I was wondering if anyone here is in the same situation as us?
• Have you heard anything about possible mass cancellations or if the airline is still maintaining its routes to Asia?
• Are there any travelers who’ve recently returned who could tell us if air corridors have been changed (longer flight times)?
The idea is to know what to expect so we can prepare as best as possible. Thanks for your replies! !
Thanks for all your contributions on the forum—they’ve really helped me plan my trip. There are four of us friends heading to Sulawesi for 20 days. Based on all your advice, I’ve put together the following itinerary:
July 30: Makassar – sightseeing
July 31: Makassar – sightseeing + overnight bus to Rantepao
August 1–7: Tana Toraja with a guide
August 7: Tana Toraja to Tentena + visit Tentena
August 8: Early departure with a private driver to Ampana, then ferry to the Togian Islands
August 9–15: Togian Islands (2 different resorts)
August 15: Depart Togian Islands for Luwuk
August 16: Flight Luwuk to Makassar
August 17: Rammang Rammang
August 18: Stroll in Makassar, then return home
Overall, what do you think?
I also have a question about the connection between Tentena and the Togian Islands: Is it doable to leave early in the morning as planned and still be sure not to miss the ferry?
Hi everyone,
I’m currently working on a 30-day itinerary for May/June 2027.
10 days in eastern Java (Malang, Bromo, waterfalls, Meru Beriti Park, Banyuwangi, and Ijen), a short transit in Ubud for a few days, then Flores before heading back to Jakarta.
We’ll spend 15 days in Flores (the classic route: Moni, Bajawa, Riung, Ruteng, ending in Labuan Bajo).
I’d love some firsthand feedback on flights to Maumere or Ende from Bali Denpasar. I know there are no direct routes and that you have to connect through Labuan Bajo or Timor (I think), which isn’t an issue in itself.
But I’ve read here and there that flights to these destinations can be delayed—or worse, canceled—and that it’s better to fly in and out of Labuan Bajo, which isn’t exactly ideal...
Thanks for any tips or experiences you can share!
